Pay Per Click Advertising or PPC

If you have tried Pay Per Click advertising before, then know this… It doesn’t have to cost that much!
Why do we say that? Simply because whenever we mention pay per click advertising to new customers we hear the same two stories:

  1. They have been tricked into paying a company £xxx per month for them to guarantee page one rankings which turned out to be done using pay per click and they didn’t see a great return because instead of spending that £xxx on the ads, they kept it as a fee for managing their ads
  2. They signed up for Google adwords using one of those vouchers for £30 free you see everywhere and then proceeded to blow a few hundred pounds (or more) before realising they were spending so much.

Why or when should you use Pay Per Click (PPC)?

There are times when search engine optimisation is not enough, at those times we turn to Pay Per Click. The main players in the PPC market are Google (Adwords), Facebook (Ads), Windows Live (AdCenter) and Yahoo! (search marketing tools).

So do you just send us more visitors?

No. The idea isn’t to get as many visitors as possible (for 99.99% of sites anyway), the idea is to attract the right kind of visitors, have them arrive at a dedicated landing page and convert them into customers. If all we had to do was drive traffic to your site that would be easy.
